+======Synopsis:======
+$[[encryptparm]](<nickname>)
+======Description:======
+Given a <nickname>, if you are having a SED encrypted conversation with that
+<nickname> on the current server, this function returns the metadata about
+that conversation as a three qword list.
+^ Word ^ Description ^
+|  0   | The nickname  |
+|  1   | The cipherkey |
+|  2   | The external encryption program |
+|  3   | The cipher type (NOT CURRENTLY USED -- MAY BE USED IN FUTURE) |
+Since the return value is a qword list, if any of the values contain spaces,
+they will be enclosed in double quotes.  The double quotes are not
+considered part of the words.  Use $qword() to extract the values from
+this list.
+In the future, word 3 will contain the cipher type, but for now, it is not
+included.  You should be prepared for this eventuality.
+In the future, this function will work for encryption types other than SED,
+but for now, nothing other than SED is supported.
+======History:======
+This function first appeared in epic4-1.1.3.
